Lead Balloon, if that was the case then sure, there would be grounds for coming at the operator, I have no first hand knowledge of the sacking that has been mentioned or the reasons behind it whatsoever and would love to hear from the person who originally told us about it what the reasons were behind it specifically, was this Pilot actually sacked or asked to leave? What was the conversation between this Pilot and Management? Did the Pilot say something during said conversation that got them subsequently sacked? Once again, someone has mentioned vaguely that the Pilot was fired but no particular reason why and we're left to assume it was specifically due to this incident but there could be a myriad of other reasons that went into it if that person even was sacked which, without any real official confirmation none of us seem to really know.
We've really gone into tin foil hat territory here with reading into a lot of things with very little facts and drawing big conclusions of them based on third hand knowledge that is so far unverifiable, so far as I can see the only real verified facts that have come out are contained in the ATSB report and that leaves open a bunch of possible avenues as to the whole "Who, What, Where, Why..." questions.
